Job Description

Job Summary:

We are actively seeking a highly skilled and exceptionally dedicated Concept & Preproduction Artist to define the visual direction for our creative projects. This role is ideal for talented artists — from emerging professionals to mid-level specialists — who are eager to gain valuable, high-end production credits. Whether you specialize in traditional digital painting or leverage modern AI tools for rapid ideation, your focus must be on delivering outstanding, production-ready artwork fast. We prize fundamental skill and efficiency above all else.

Nature of Work and Core Responsibilities

The work demands both creative visualization and technical documentation, with a strong emphasis on speed and quality of execution.

  • Visual Ideation: Translate scripts, written briefs, and creative direction from the leadership team into compelling visual concepts for characters, environments, props, and key frame moments.
  • Core Art Execution: Produce detailed concept sketches, refined digital paintings, and colour keys that establish the final aesthetic, mood, and lighting for entire sequences.
  • Production Blueprinting: Create precise specification sheets and detailed character/prop turnarounds with material call-outs and dimensions, ensuring that 3D modelers and other departments can execute your vision accurately.
  • Workflow Flexibility: You will be encouraged to utilize the most efficient tools available to meet demanding schedules. This includes:
  • Conventional Workflow: Working from scratch using pure digital painting and photo-bashing techniques.
  • AI Integration: Leveraging Generative AI platforms for mood inspiration and initial composition ideas, followed by expert-level manual cleanup and over-painting to achieve final polish and ensure artistic ownership.
  • Collaboration & Revision: Proactively receive and implement creative notes and direction, executing rapid revisions to designs until final approval is met.

Important Note:

We are looking for dedicated artists eager to prove themselves on high-quality projects. Your portfolio must demonstrate a strong command of artistic fundamentals and your best visual problem-solving, regardless of the tools you use. This opportunity offers a demanding but rewarding path to gaining critical professional experience and credits. We prioritize passion and potential over a high salary demand.

Software Proficiency and Tools to Know

Proficiency in the core digital painting software is mandatory, with supplemental tools valued for efficiency.

  • Digital Painting Core: Expert proficiency in Adobe Photoshop is essential for all final stages of art production, cleanup, and compositing.
  • 3D Blocking Tools: Functional knowledge of Blender or SketchUp to quickly block out scenes, check perspective, and establish camera angles for complex environments.
  • AI/Sketching Tools (Highly Valued): Experience using rapid sketching software, or familiarity with Generative AI platforms for non-final, inspirational ideation, is a strong advantage.

Professional & Workflow Skills (The Efficiency Factor)

  • Rapid Execution: Proven ability to manage a high volume of work and deliver high-quality sketches and final concepts quickly under tight deadlines.
